Dirt bike, Road
and Trail bike seats
I promised you I would give a full road test review to
you after I’d put a few hundred k’s on the new seat. Well I had that
chance on the weekend. Here’s what I found:
The overall experience was a positive one! Upon getting
it back from you in the post it immediately appeared wider and a little
softer but not as soft as I had envisioned it would be. Having
remembered you said if it was too soft it may sag I felt OK about it.
It certainly looks the part with good attention to detail and
workmanship. The vinyl used seems a good choice as it is not to
slippery or grippy – a very good compromise with a quality feel.
I’ve ridden on it twice now with the last one being a
200K ride from Sydney to Wollembi. The standard seat was giving me a
‘tailbone’ ache after just 30 minutes or so. The standard seat was very
hard and narrow. The new softness of your new seat was apparent upon
first sitting on it but even more so after a while in the saddle.
However, I feel the biggest improvement has been the extra width over
the original design. It very effectively spreads the load across now
and I do not have anymore ‘tailbone’ ache at all. I can’t believe I
nearly spent $1,200 (in total with shipping!) to get a Corbin seat from
the US when the solution was here in my own back yard for a fraction of
that price!
What you have done with a sculpted few pieces of
different density foam on top of the original seat base is amazing
Peter. I certainly won’t have any problem recommending you to my
friends and other riders and would be happy for you to show this email
as a recommendation to any future clients of yours. God knows why
Suzuki couldn’t replicate this as standard equipment and save us all
the trouble?!
Many thanks again Peter, for transforming my riding
experience and enjoyment of my DR650.
Best regards, Brian (West Pennant Hills, NSW)

Most dirt bikes with narrow
seats can be made a little moor comfortable.
Some are very hard and narrow
creating soreness in a very short time in the
saddle.
Dirt and Road trail bikes may
benefit from the seat being made wider and in
some cases also softer releasing
pressure on the cheeks and coccyx.
Most people think they need to
buy a new seat from overseas to have success
rectifying the problems.
That isn't always so. A short
phone call to discuss the seat and problems may
find that we may have an answer
for you .
We don't make seats but if you
supply us with your seat or a replacement seat.
We will work on that to make it
more comfortable. Seats being made wider seem
a reasonable choice for
improved comfort.
This option may not work for everyone but is worth a phone
call.

This site is of great
interest to those that know nothing about motorbikes and those that do.
I think you will get a great amount of information without trying. The
links to this site seem endless and also of great value. I think every
one involved with motorcycles will get something out of this site. For
those that already know it all, test your knowledge and follow the
links to see how much you really do know. It may surprise you.
